On the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, Announcing ProLife TV - Video Blog Speaking Against Abortion and Other Evils Posted: 12-08-2005 20:49 Eastern Time ProLife TV is being launched today, December 8, 2005. On December 8th, the Catholic Church celebrates the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. Today, we honor the conception without sin of our Lord and Savior's Blessed Mother who is also our Mother. We often hear about women needing to take strong roles. While Mary is a creature of God like all of us, she was chosen by God to play an extremely important role in human history. She had the courage to give her fiat to God and obey His Will. She is an example for all of us. Oh Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. Immaculate Mary, your praises we sing. Pro-Life TV is intended to become a video blog (sometimes known as "vlogging" or "video podcasting"). The project will feature video clips about respecting life from conception to natural death with an emphasis on the religious aspects of this issue. However, this will not be just one or two individuals expressing their thoughts. Instead, the goal is to display video clips from many different people involved in peaceful and legal pro-life activities. Through ProLife TV, we hope to reach those who are on the fence or even those who might consider themselves pro-"choice." Often times, those who are not involved in the Culture of Life / Culture of Death debate think of pro-life people as "kooks." (Many who agree with legalized abortion believe pro-lifers are "kooks.") By presenting video clips of pro-life people speaking about the issues, fence-sitters have the chance to see and hear pro-life people. This will hopefully give fence-sitters the ability to learn what pro-lifers are really like. It is most important to communicate the message that there are objective morals and that we need to conform to God's Holy Will, not our own. He is our Creator and we owe God that much at the very minimum. But if fence-sitters dismiss us altogether, they will not listen to our message. ProLife TV requires a high-speed Internet connection. Unfortunately, the video clips cannot be viewed via dial-up connections. We hope you will visit the site. New video clips will continue to be added. Please continue to visit to see new clips. When a pregnancy occurs, it is God's Will that a new life is forming. God is the Author of Life. It is not for us to initiate the destruction of human life at any time, least of all with newly formed life in the womb. When faced with a difficult circumstance, we should look to the Blessed Virgin Mary's example. Pro-life people recognize that life begins at conception. The largest Culture of Life / Culture of Death debate surrounds abortion --- a legalized evil where a baby can be brutally killed in his or her mother's womb. What better day to launch a project encouraging respect for human life than the celebration of the Immaculate Conception of the Mother of God? May God bless you. Other blog entries:
